GODDOMMOT FRONK

Mario Paint Composer

I actually touched MPC over the past few weeks. I even started a song, though it quickly disapatted. It sucks not being able to use Evolution.

I've decided that my next "major" project will be a Linkin Park song. I hop I can get it out before Halloween.

Other

Not in the best of moods this week either. School's piling up, work's taking all of my free time (I did get paid today however). Saving up for a desktop so I can use Evolution.

Hopefully you enjoy!
See you next Monday!

GRR.

I finally re-downloaded ALL the soundfonts I used to have. So now I can finally use MPC again.

Don't you hate it whenever you can't use something, but then you get a huge amount of inspiration? Yeah, that's basically what has happened

Not in the best of moods this week. I happened to get in a car accident, so now I'm without a car for a few weeks. GRR.

I haven't really touched MPC over the past week. I found out all my soundfonts are corrupted, so I'll need to re-download them all (sigh). There is one song that I've been listening to that's BEGGING me to make it. However, I feel like going a different route with this. Not get it as close as I can with a soundfont, but get get as close as I can without one, kind of like how it was when I first started, before soundfonts were created. It'll be simple, sure, but it'll be more reminiscent of how MPC is supposed to work.

Other

I got a job! YAY!

Other than that, I haven't done much. Saving up for a nice computer (hopefully it'll run Evolution so I can start recreating MIDIs again. NoteWorthy is giving me too many problems).

Halo: Reach comes out tomorrow. Just about to take a nap so I can stay up all night trying to beat the campaign. Why yes I do have college tomorrow.

Good lord FOUR WEEKS?

Mario Paint Composer

I haven't had a chance to play with MPC in the past four weeks. Sorry, the reason was...

Other

... my computer completely died. The screen would turn on but the keyboard and mouse just straight up stopped. I had to send it in to get repaired; got it back last Wednesday. So yeah, I managed to get all my stuff back, but other than that this past week has been mostly getting my computer to what it was like before.

Evolution also will not work for me anymore, since they reinstalled Home Premium 64-bit on my computer. So now I need to look for a new MIDI creator. NoteWorthy was the first that came to mind, but God does it look hard to learn. Oh well...

Happy birthday Dad!

Mario Paint Composer

Like I said, the 3rd Community OC should be coming out within the next month. FINALLY.

As for what I've worked on, I didn't get a chance to actually touch it over the weekend. I'm still looking for that piece that'll spur me to open it again. I have a few ideas, but nothing I want to do yet.

The Buck Stops Here (TBSH)

We start a new movie tomorrow I think. I've already finished my short story, so I don't have to worry about that anymore.

As for ACTUAL news about TBSH, I think it'll be put on indefinite hiatus (odd since it never really started). I just don't have the time or materials necessary to have this work. I'm not calling it quits, I'm just saying not yet.

Other

Got sick AGAIN over the weekend (seriously, this is like the first time in ten years I got sick twice within a month's span). Started on Kid Wars - Chapter 10 and started thinking of major plot points and events in Torch. Torch'll take me a while, but Chapter 10 is pretty basic to me. Expect that within the next fifteen months (it'll not be another Chapter 9).

Whoops. Forgot about last week. My bad.

Mario Paint Composer

To anyone who missed my latest release, here it is.
I also started and finished my part in the long dormant Community Original Composition. Rusty now (hopefully) has the parts. Let's see if we can get it out by the one year anniversary of the start of it. :P

The Buck Stops Here (TBSH)

Still nothing regarding my little side project. I would like to start it. Lack of time, an actual camera (I was planning using my webcam), and a little nervousness is getting at me.

We are watching Children of Man in Film class. We also got an assignment regarding an original short story.

Other

I've been playing a lot of League of Legends lately. Yeah I know, "I should be working on MPC/TBSH." Sorry, it's too fun. And it's completely free.

To anyone who wants to check it out, here's a link.

Hopefully you enjoy!
See you next Monday!
(I'll make sure of it!)

Nothing. Absolutely nothing. ;-;

The Buck Stops Here (TBSH)

Finished watching Rear Window in Film class. Been wanting to see that for a while too.


Other

Had fun at my family vacation. Saw Inception over the weekend; very good movie. Unfortunately, I either caught stomach flu or got food poisoning, as I fell ill on Sunday. After a horrible experience driving beck from Duluth, I spent the next few hours in the bathroom. I did not go to school today; first sick day I've had in years. Hopefully I'm better by tomorrow.
